beautiful brokenness
Derived From Web , Oct 18, 2021
C. Lefteri gives a gripping account of the asylum seekers world as they find their way to a land of safety. The reader can live in the heart and soul of these broken people by shifting between flashbacks, memories and real time events. The hope is that the descriptions of the bees in their natural environment will help with healing.

Very Good but Very Grim
Derived From Web , Jul 13, 2021
The book is very important in showing what immigrants go through when they leave their home countries, but it is not an easy read. It is not for the faint of heart.

gift for Mother
Derived From Web , Mar 31, 2021
My mother is a docent at a museum and is also a member of a book club that reads Asian book history once a month. When she couldn't get it at the local library, I found this for her.

Poorly written
Derived From Web , Mar 5, 2021
The book doesn't do the job of showing the life in Syria. From the beginning of the book, it takes you back and forth. Even though the events are being remembered, it is written in the present tense.

Disappointed
Derived From Web , Jan 23, 2021
I was looking forward to this book. There were several disappointments. It is an awkward size and it doesn't fit in my hands. The plot was boring. If you want a page turner, this is not the story for you.

The book is a harrowing tale of displacement.
Derived From Web , Sep 19, 2020
The story was told in a way that made it seem like the author was trying to convey the trauma of the main character. That approach caused confusion. Only the main character was fully developed. I would have liked to see more development of other characters. The book depicts the trials of refugees on the move in large numbers, seeking havens far from their native lands.

Heartbreaking and beautiful!
Derived From Web , Aug 27, 2020
It is difficult to write a review of a book that is personal. Will everyone think the same about this book? Probably not. Is it worth the time? Absolutely. Being forced from your home by war is worse than being a refugee.

Not really worth the time. Bounces around too much.
Derived From Web , May 18, 2020
It was interesting but bounced around a lot. It was difficult to know if Nuri was imagining or actually experiencing.
